Speaking Spanish
Most Latin Americans need to learn a second language, except
Brazil, where most of the population needs, in addition to English, also learn
a third language, Spanish. First, Spanish is, after English, the second most
used language as an international vehicle for communication, especially in
trade. In the United States and Canada, Spanish is the second most popular
language. Second, for Brazil, the reason for this is that the main Latin
American countries and trade partners of Brazil in Mercosur (South Common
Market) speak Spanish. Only three small non-Hispanic countries, Guyana,
Suriname, and French Guiana, at the northern end of the continent do not speak
Spanish, all other countries in this market speak. However, beyond South
America, also in Central America and Mexico dominate Spanish. In conclusion,
learn Spanish has become highly valued in the Brazilian labor market, after
English, for those who need to interact with this gigantic market for reasons of work or culturally.
It would definitely be beneficial to be multilingual! There are a few countries where people speak Portuguese (I saw some Portuguese signs when I visited Macau), but Spanish is more widespread.
